All uphill, into a headwind at 90mph? Just trying to give them the benefit of doubt.

That must be with the “hardcore” pack battery.

I just cross posted that picture in TMC. Hopefully they will have some insight into why that number maths out to being so low.

My name is Mike, and I have a (car) problem
I can’t believe I’m about to do this, but …

We don’t know the drive mode, so that range might not be terrible. On 20s, in AP, at speed, I’m seeing 275ish miles of range (with A/S in conserve, I easily saw 350 though). It’s possible it will see 350ish miles. It’s also possible that these are Tesla Miles and it’ll get <200.

Going to go find a sharp object and puncture what’s left of my cerebral cortex now so I never need to think about this again.

Our trip last weekend, burned through 96% of the battery in my R1T in 180 miles. Doing 10 over the whole time. Nail biter for sure, last bit the truck was barely able to keep up highway speed.
Of course this is with a bunch of extra gear on the truck and KO2s... Initially the truck was showing we'd have 72 miles of range left at the charge stop. Said 13 when I plugged in. Things aren't always so black and white.

My guess is that there is some rounding going on with the displayed arrival percentage. For example, if the calculated arrival range was 65.9 and it rounded down to 65, then it could be closer to 5% used than 6% used. 16/.05 = 320 miles of real world range.

So based on that screenshot I am going to guess that it is actually somewhere between 5% and 6% for that trip and the actual real world range is about 300 miles and the EPA rating will be 350. While far short of the originally advertised specs, it isn't awful or all that different than Rivian.

When the cybertuck was announced they advertised specs that greatly eclipsed any foreseeable competition at nearly to-good-to-be-true pricing. I think we are going to end up with something that is much closer to industry average pricing and industry average specs.

All the tea leaves point to the CT having a 120-140kwh size battery pack to me.
